HOW TO: Excellent Papaya Zoap Cultivation Yield: 3 plants Time: Approximately 10 weeks from seed to harvest Ingredients: - 3 Papaya Zoap seeds - Terra Preta MJ mix soil - Water - PK Booster (for late flowering stage) Instructions: 1. Planting: - Plant 3 Papaya Zoap seeds in Terra Preta MJ mix soil. 2. Seedling care: - Provide daily watering to the seedlings. - Maintain a consistent watering schedule as they grow. 3. Vegetative stage: - Allow plants to grow vigorously in the nutrient-rich Terra Preta MJ mix. - Continue regular watering as needed. 4. Flowering stage: - When plants enter late flowering, apply PK Booster as needed. - Maintain water schedule, adjusting as necessary. 5. Harvest (after approximately 10 weeks): - Plants should display a well-structured, symmetric "chandelier" appearance. - Look for dense, conical-shaped buds with attractive purple and blue hues. Notes: - This strain grows quickly, reaching maturity in about 10 weeks from seed. - The Terra Preta MJ mix provides sufficient nutrients for most of the growing cycle. - Minimal intervention is required beyond regular watering and late-stage PK boosting. Result: Enjoy your symmetrical, vigorous Papaya Zoap plants with dense, colorful buds. The minimal-fuss growing process yields impressive results in a relatively short time frame.

420Fastbuds FBT2312/ Week 7 These two beautiful girls are growing amazing. Starting to smell super strong and frosty. I noticed some fade so I upped the nitrogen for one feeding and it seemed help. Over all super exciting times in the weeks to come. Happy Growing

Bin echt sehr zufrieden und erstaunt, wie gut sich die Mädels gemacht haben. Und erstaunlich, wie die nach 22 Tagen schon riechen… bin echt gespannt, wie lange es noch bis zur Blüte dauert

Die Blüten werden schön schwer und bunt. Das Wetter stellt sie auf die Probe und fordert Opfer.

-It's been a hot week and plants are doing great. -All the plants have almost caught up to BC1 in height. -There's been little rain so they're getting more water, pretty much every 2nd or 3rd day with the hose and once a week with food. -Definitely going to have to wire up alot of the lower branches once flowering starts as quite a few seem to be starting to sag under their own weight. Might start soon to prevent any damage. -And the White Widow Auto Midget is still just growing

She is all done stretching now and soon will have fat smelly buds. She's doubles in size in the past week progress has been great coco coir is defiantly the way forward! Feeding 7L ever other day have switched to bloom feed. Install a carbon filter and extractor fan to bring the tempter down and fam to keep buds from roating. Will need to get a better reflector to allow more light to reach the edges of the tent.

8/9/2018 - All of these girls are doing great and have all shown their white pistils now! The branching on them has taken off and they responded to being topped really well. I’ve switched them from my 4x4 grow tent into a 4x8. I have to say it is significantly better having the extra space to be able to water, move around and for better air circulation with multiple fans. I also believe this will greatly help with light penetration inventory they bush out. I’ve been having issues keeping the daytime air temperature down due to the extream heat wave we have been experiencing. I think I have tackled this issue by running the lights at night now while the temperatures are cooler. Tomorrow is the official switch to flower and will be on a 13 hours off, 11 hours on light cycle for the next 2 days. Then on a normal 12/12 light cycle. IVE read that this can help the plants switch quicker. I’m looking forward to seeing the growth over the next few weeks!

11/3 Week 6 Watered roughly one gal each @6.5PH, Fish Sh!t 5ml - Karo 1 tps /gal Flower Girl still in the pot, no deficiencies I can see, well new ones :) Mag-Sulfur Foliar spray (Epsom Salt 1tbs/gal) on all as leaving cal-mag out this time Moved the two healthy plants to the center of the light, they can use it, the others might respond well to lower levels. 11/4 Better pics uploaded Placed Brandy on a block of coco coir to bring her canopy up to Layla's level. Moved Maggie to the corner she has a stretch going that I HOPE is ending and I dont want to set the lights to her. Watching that plant carefully Considering a PK boost watching only Layla for that as the other two ... well hell what can they tell me? 11/5 Working to getting the canopy under control with one stunted plant and another stretching like crazy. Put a block under Brandy to move her up level with Layla. Trained down Maggie this growth needs to end, it was already stressed. Still giving light pref to healthy plants. 11/6 Raised lights three clicks, increased extraction, showing some heat stress in those edges. 11/7 Good results on the heat stress curling has ended. Noticed some improvement also in the tops of Brandy and Maggie, so raised lights another couple of clicks. See if it continues, coming up on a make or break feeding in couple of days. update Foliar Feed All - Epsom Salt 1tbs/gal Well Maggie's came today - To runoff- 1% peroxide - 5ml CalMag - PH 6.8 Hitting Sulfur as hard as I can. Before pics posted Brandy not dry enough waiting Layla just got fed but she got pics too as there are signs of Mag deficiency 1 gal 6.5 PH - CalMag 5ml - Fish Sh!t 5ml - Bio_Bloom 5ml as a PK booster JIC 11/8 Video of plants 24hrs after giving Maggie the h2o2 1% , think she looks better lets see how it goes 11/9 48 hrs after treatment and Maggie is showing great improvement, serious improvement in leaf structure and coloring. Pics at lights out tomorrow new week anyway. Brandy showing some improvement but its early. Canopy is level now so lights set to Maggie being slightly taller ***Last update before the new week.*** May have found ONE of my problems,certainly not THE problem, but one. I have been using lemon juice as a PH UP since we went organic late last spring. Because of all the problems I have been looking into a lot of things further and found that lemon juice begins to degrade as a PH up after as little as an hour. A 6.0 PH water gallon can go to 6.5ish in 24 hours simply sitting in a dark corner in a jug. One can imagine the variances in soil. Why I dont know but I am going back to chemical PH additives post haste in fact its already done.

Las amnesia están malitas. Ns exactamente por qué es. El único fallo que creo haber cometido ha sido regar de más, supurando por abajo un par de veces. He regado cada 4-5 días (muy poco) así q ns si el sustrato está muy compacto y por eso no traga ni como airearlo

Day 73 ~ Plant 1 is looking great and hopefully will be ready to harvest by the end of the week. Been checking the trichomes and while most are getting milky white, there are still a couple sites on the plant where I find clear trichomes. Plant 2 seems to be about a week or two behind the first plant...I will give plant 2 their final Nutes tmrw and then begin to flush. From reading about this strain it seems like it should take around 90 days from seed to harvest. So I would think plant 1 is running a little ahead of schedule and plant 2 is right on time. Day 75 ~ Both plants looking and smelling amazing! I was hoping to be harvesting the first plant by this weekend, but she is still growing and her trichomes are still not all milky and I haven't yet to find an amber one. So it might be another week or so before I can start drying her out.

Here is a video tour of my back yard jungle. I am in the process of a huge clean-up now that the plants are ripening up and the buds are getting heavy. I'll post some photos tomorrow once the work is done. Some of the fan leaves are coming down now to promote light penetration and air circulation... don't want mildew.

Hey growmies, It’s been 31 days since flipping to flower, my tent is filled with buds. I think I managed to recover this plant, if you look back to week 10 and 11 you can see this plant was struggling, losing her dark green colour and yellowing. I raised my lights, getting PPFD from 1100 down to 850, I have also started feeding organic nutrients. The organic nutrients alone will feed my plants, but my soil needed a recharge, too. I suspect a lot of the soil bacteria started dying back, so to try and replenish the ranks I topdressed with worm castings, and created a compost tea using molasses and organic worm castings. Neem oil was not enough to get rid of the few thrips I had, so I opted for Spinosad, an organic bioinsecticide which is derived from the fermentation juices of a soil bacterium called Saccharopolyspora spinosa I decided spinosad was the best option because it’s organic and safe to spray in flower, neem oil can’t go on flowers, reducing its effectiveness. After just one dose of spinosad applied in a foliar spray, My garden is pest free, and it looks like the tea and organic fertiliser is also getting color back into my plant. The smell so far is mainly skunk, no oranges (yet) but it's clear this run is back on track. The trichomes are okay, I've had frostier strains, I can still see new calyxes growing, so she's definitely still putting on more weight, it might be to early to call anything I also included some pictures of the clones, they really show what a difference ScrOGging makes, since the clones were topped once and let to grow naturally

Whelp figured out my PH meter was not reading correctly which means I was not balancing the PH of my water correctly....that being said I had been using RO water that *read* it was testing around 7.0, so I was using PH down to 6.5 5/27 - Decided to top the plant. Again with this being my first grow, this was slightly nerve-racking 5/28 - Seems I didn't mess up the top chop, woooh! I tested the PH of my soil today(5.6), if that even tells me anything(I find 2 articles that say it doesn't and another 2 that say the opposite...so that's magical) and ended up just buying a few gallons of distilled water from the store since I didn't want to be running my RO system for my plant and the others in my house.(made sense in my head at the time) Fed a dose of nutrients in the feeding tonight. I believe I was underwatering my plant. 5/29 Forgot to take a picture because I thought I might have overfed the nutes, on the night before.., So I spent the night researching info and trying to figure out if that was the case and how to correct it. But again since I am new to this, I have no clue lol. It also seems I had bumped up the light power from 50% to 100% some how the night before. Ended up dropping it down to 70% power. 5/30 I took the photo, then tied down the main stem. worries of overfeeding have subsided for now... 6/1 Looking extra bushy today. Holding off on defoliation, unless someone tells me otherwise. I am trying to hold off for a few days on doing anything more that could stress out my plant.
